Whilst Kanye West and Kim Kardashian suffered a lot to get their second child, they were willing to reduce success rate by half to get the desired gender.
Kim was very open about the fact they were having difficulty conceiving, and also that they were trying IVF.
But despite the long road, they knew they wanted a boy, and so had only male embryos implanted. That’s according to a story run by US Weekly.
The gossip site wrote:
“She only had boy embryos implanted,” says a source close to Kardashian, who confirmed the gender on Monday, June 21, after Us Weekly broke the news. During the procedure — which can start at roughly $17,000 — doctors isolate fertilized embryos of the preferred sex in a lab, then transfer them to a uterus”
Apparently, this happened because Kanye wanted an heir to his empire, so was doing everything possible to get a boy.
“Kanye and Kim are so excited to complete their family,” says another source of the parents of daughter North, 2. “Kanye loves Nori more than anything, but to make his world complete, he wanted a little boy, an heir,” says a source close to West.
